PERVERTS and swingers are advertising meetings at sites in Widnes and Runcorn on seedy internet sites, the Weekly News has discovered.

Kinky Halton residents have posted details of a host of locations in the borough where voyeuristic 'dogging' sessions take place and make arrangements to meet up with others.

It has been discovered perverts are leaving messages on websites urging people to visit places like Pex Hill in Cronton, Spike Island in West Bank as well as the Old Norton Recreational site in Castlefields, Run-corn, for partner swapping.

The 'dogging' phenomenon involves meeting strangers for sex in isolated sites like car parks and inviting people to watch.

The website also claims that Widnes and Cronton village are hotbeds for wife swapping parties.

The site promotes: 'Group sex and orgies; dogging locations; wife swapping and swingers clubs in and around Widnes, Runcorn and Cronton.'

One man, who asked not to be named, said: 'In the 1960s Cronton used to be well-known for wife swapping and sex parties.

'I thought that was in the past - but obviously not.'

Another site claims to have a contacts book that boasts more than 250,000 names of 'active swinging members'.

It is believed that Pex Hill car park is fast becoming a magnet for people in search of sex.

But during the day the area is a haven for wildlife and is used by families for days out.
